Subject: [PATCH] KVM: TDX: Account all non-transient page allocations for
per-TD structures
Account all non-transient allocations associated with a single TD (or its
vCPUs), as KVM's ABI is that allocations that are active for the lifetime
of a VM are accounted. Leave temporary allocations, i.e. allocations that
are freed within a single function/ioctl, unaccounted, to again align with
KVM's existing behavior, e.g. see commit dd103407ca31 ("KVM: X86: Remove
unnecessary GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT for temporary variables").
Fixes: 8d032b683c29 ("KVM: TDX: create/destroy VM structure")
Fixes: a50f673f25e0 ("KVM: TDX: Do TDX specific vcpu initialization")
